Can MS be used with 2-stroke engines? I'm thinking of ditching the carbs on my GT750 project if it can...

I don't know about 2-stroke, but I believe Doc Hess did a Megasquirt to his wife's sportster

I don't see why not - assuming you can find a TB and injector setup that fits, and have all the required sensors. You would also have to ensure you have enough juice to run the ECU and possibly a fuel pump (not sure if Dr Hess used a pump or not).

Yes, it can. The guy you're thinking of is Andy Whittle; he favors using mass air flow sensors on 2 strokes as they don't get a very steady MAP signal.

I think water buffalo's use oil-injection like the rest of the GT line, meaning the carbs only handle gasoline. That should make a MS setup a little easier.

There's a link out there to a MegaSquirted RD350 or RZ350 or something.
I'll see if I can dig it up.

Cool! Thanks!
I'll probably stick with the carbs just to get it running, but perhaps if the financial and time Gods smile upon me...

I'd never call it "useless"...

I think the biggest concern is an injector that will spray the gas oil mix. But as I recall there was a guy on the www.MSRuns.com that was doing a sea doo 2 cylinder 2 stroke. His name was Andy White or something to that effect.
Not a problem, RX7's do it all the time.
